James D. Outler

On July 11, 2008 one of the finest people we have ever known was called to heaven.
Our friendship with James and Sara(Nookie) Outler began a little over 32 years ago when we moved into the house next door to them and they came over to welcome us to the neighborhood:) We called them Mr. and Mrs. Outler. We have many special memories of those days.
Stan recalls when he and Mr. Outler would go fishing on the river they would be sitting no more than 5 feet apart but Mr. Outler would be...

I remember when I...

To Judy, MeMaw and Entire Outler Family:
Growing old is not a trematic experience, but watching our heroes grow old is very painful. As children, our daddies are true giants who can defeat all enemies and overcome all trials and tribulations. We walk in their shadow and footsteps and want to be just like "daddy". As we grow older, we think we become more self-sufficient, but anytime we have trouble, daddy's name comes to our lips. Giants such as Mr. Outler forged of steel by The...

You and Papa always made me feel like a part of the family. I will always remember you both welcoming me into your home for the weekend when I came along for the visit with Gina. I know Papa was a very loved man and I am glad I had the opportunity to know him.
